Review

This is a simple counting book, illustrated with pen and ink washed with watercolor. It begins with the number "1" with an illustration of both a moon and an owl. As you turn the pages, you will realize that the author/illustrator is using alliteration such as 1 is one and the item to count is an owl, 2 is turtle, up to the number twenty. On the last two pages there is a "Before you go, can you find..." and items to look-and-find in the illustrations. The illustrations are beautiful, items are easy to count, it is thoughtful and enjoyable, well done and useful.

Overall Book Score: excellent
